Tuen, Queensland

The Warrego River flows from the north of the locality through to the south. The Mitchell Highway (also known as Barringun Road) runs roughly parallel and east of the river. Tuen Creek flows from the south-east of the locality and joins the Warrego River in roughly the centre of the locality; the highway crosses Tuen Creek near the confluence and at that spot is the undeveloped town of Tuen, a grid of 4 x 3 streets (). The terrain is relatively flat at above sea level. == History ==

The locality derives its name from Tuen Creek. Some lots were sold as 20 of them were owned by Margaret Heuston at her death in 1910. Her husband Robert Heuston operated the Tuen Hotel beside the Barringun Road until at least 1913, after which it may have been operated by the Gwydir family. In 1925, the hotel was taken over by retired policeman Robert Winterburn until at least 1934. There is no evidence the hotel was operating in the 1940s. == Demographics ==

The alternatives are distance education and boarding school. == References ==
